Highlights

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Service — Highly Recommend! We recently worked with Shelly, John, and the A-Class Building team on Phase 1 of our bungalow-to-chalet conversion and couldn’t be happier! From day one, Shelly made the process smooth, with excellent communication and constant support. John and the on-site team were professional, friendly, and meticulous — their craftsmanship and attention to detail were exceptional. They took our ideas and made them even better, offering creative, practical solutions and completing the project on time with minimal disruption. Our home now feels brighter, bigger, and beautifully transformed. We can’t wait for Phase 2 and highly recommend A-Class Building — truly first-class from start to finish!"

"A class recently completed an extension and garage conversion on our house and we were very happy with the work throughout. From the initial consultation the team were very professional. Communication was excellent, from receiving the initial quote and timeline, to receiving updates on progress throughout the project. We never felt out off the loop and were always clear on what was being worked on and that the project was on track. Even when there were external factors outside of anyone's control (burst pipe in the street), John and the team had a clear plan to make sure there was minimal impact. The contractors used were local, professional people and everything has been finished to a high standard throughout. We were quickly provided quotes for any additional work we requested and informed when this would be completed. We would not hesitate to recommend A class for any building work and would like to thank John, Shelly and the rest of the team for helping our vision come to life."

"Having used many building companies for extensions and renovations over the years, I have to say that the service received from A Class is second to none. From the expert planning and on time delivery, to the general cleanliness of site during works, you have definitely exceeded my expectations . I will continue to recommend you to anyone that I know is seeking the services that you offer. Thank you again."

A Class have just completed our extension and we would absolutely recommend them to everybody. John and his team went above and beyond to complete our home - you can tell how much they care about their customer & the end result. They all work so hard, so quickly and to such a high standard. We were kept updated regularly along the way and every stage was so well organised. We are over the moon with our home, so a huge thank you to John, Shelly and everyone else involved.

Before you hire a builder

Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
